Guiding device for a belt means of a belt-driven conical pulley transmission

A guiding device for a connecting belt of a belt-driven conical-pulley transmission said guiding device comprising:

• a first guiding section having a first sliding surface and a second guiding section having a second sliding surface that is spaced from the first sliding surface of the first guiding section and between which first and second sliding surfaces the connecting belt is guided in a running direction, wherein the guiding sections extend in a longitudinal direction corresponding to the running direction of the connecting belt and extend in a transverse direction perpendicular to the running direction of the connecting belt, the first and second guiding sections connected by a connecting section having lateral edge sections which delimit the extent of the guiding sections in a direction transverse to the connecting belt running direction, wherein the connecting section includes at least one longitudinal rib that extends in the running direction of the connecting belt and which is spaced from the lateral edge sections of the connecting section.
